About the Lenovo ThinkSystem SR850 V4
The Lenovo ThinkSystem SR850 V4 packs four-socket scale-up performance into a dense 2U rack chassis, pairing two or four Intel Xeon 6700P-series (Granite Rapids SP) processors of up to 86 cores each with 64 DDR5 DIMM slots for as much as 16TB of memory running at 6400 MHz. With support for RDIMMs, 3DS RDIMMs and CXL 2.0 modules alongside ECC, SDDC, ADDDC and memory mirroring, it is engineered for the largest in-memory databases, SAP HANA deployments, virtualisation estates and analytics workloads where memory footprint and reliability matter most.
Storage and expansion are equally generous: up to 24x 2.5-inch or 32x E3.S hot-swap NVMe bays, up to twelve PCIe Gen5 slots plus two OCP 3.0 Gen5 network slots, and optional GPU support for up to four single-wide or two double-wide accelerators. Redundant Titanium-class power up to 3200W, N+1 dual-rotor cooling with optional open-loop water cooling, and XClarity Controller 3 (XCC3) management with TPM 2.0 and Platform Firmware Resiliency round out a true enterprise platform. Servnet configures, prices and supplies the ThinkSystem SR850 V4 in the UK, with every specification here verified against the Lenovo Press product guide.
